~ I Do Not Own Danny Phantom or the Teen Titans~

Chapter 13 ~ Scars of The Past

Danny's POV

I walked into the living room with Robin as I glanced around looking for anything that might pose a threat to me or my secret. I still don't trust them. I just hope I can get out of here soon before my identity is revealed.

I looked over and saw Robin staring at me. I raised an eyebrow and stared back at him. I sighed finding that a staring contest was childish and looked away and glanced at everyone in the room. "So...hows it going?" I ask and mental face palmed myself. That was smart Fenton, real smooth.

Cyborg, who had a bump on his head that made me think he had been hit, smiled and walked up to me. "Everything's going great Danny. You should be more worried about yourself though. Have all our injuries healed up from yesterday?"

I nodded at him with a calm expression. "Yeah their all healed up. And my ankle has hardly been giving me any trouble at all."

Cyborg grinned. "Thats great. Like I said before, your a fast healer."

I just nodded to that and looked over at Raven who was staring at me intently. I looked away trying to ignore here and saw Beast Boy walking up to me, a big grin on his face.

"Hey Danny, Have you played the new version of Doomed yet? It came out last month!" He said holding up a gave with a skull on the cover with Doom writing across the skull.

I shook my head. "I haven't played that game in so long. The last time was with...Sam and...Tucker..." I trailed of slightly at the memory of my friends. My stomach twisted inside me and I felt as if I was going to be sick.

I saw Beast Boy's face fall when he realized that the memory of my friends had impacted me hard. "Oh dude, I'm sorry." He said as his green pointed ears drooped slightly.

I shook my head and forced a small smile on my face. "Don't worry about it. Life is always going to give me something to remember them by." I said calmly. I glanced around the room again and tried not to think about my old friends.

Robin cleared his throat and looked at me. "So, Danny. I have something I want to asked you."

I looked at him and nodded. "Fire away."

Robin paused and stared right into my blue eyes. "While we were treating you in the Medical bay, we noticed something that doesn't make since." He began, making me tense up. "You are a fast healer, your heart rate was only 25 bpm and your body temp was 82° F. Your ankle was fractured yet it is almost completely healed in only a day." He said crossing his arms staring at me. "Why is that?"

I was frozen in my spot and I started to panic a bit, but I tried to calm myself. "I...umm...My parents were ghost hunters...so...I would be exposed to...a lot of chemicals...so I must have gotten infected with something that messed with my system." I said trying to hide my nervousness.

Robin nodded, buying the story. "So...what about the scar on you face? Shouldn't that have healed as well?"

I stared in shock. "How did you...?"

"We saw it while we were treating you."

I bit my lip and sighed. "I was at the Nasty Burger when it blew up." I began softly. "A piece of hot, slightly molten metal, flew out and sliced me across my face. I'm lucky it didn't take out my eye." I added. "But something must have been on the metal when it hit me, enabling it to heal properly." I told the truth that time.

Robin nodded again. "Alright. Just wanted to clear some things up."

I felt a slight mental poking in my head that was so faint that if I had not been trained to be hyper aware, I never would have noticed it. I looked over at Raven, who was still staring at me. As if she were trying to get into my head and figure me out. That wont be happening. I thought loud enough in my head so that if she was prodding, she would hear my thought loud and clear. And just for safe keeping, I brought up a strong mental barrier around my mind keeping anyone with psychic powers out.

I saw Raven's eyes widen with shock before narrowing at me.

I glared at her,when I realized she WAS trying to get into my head. I smirked at her before looking back at the other Titans with a calm expression. "No problem. I understand. I don't trust very easily either." I said. "I need to trust people before I can confined them in my secrets. And I'd like to keep it that way." I said giving a glance at Raven letting her know what I was talking about.

She glared at me, getting my message.

I smirked again. "But, anywho," I said looking back at Robin. "I haven't eaten all day. So got anything that I may snack on?" I asked, referring to our earlier conversation in my room.

Robin nodded, oblivious to mine and Raven silent exchange. "Sure. The kitchen is right over there. Cook whatever you want." He replied gesturing to a back corner of the living room.

I nodded a thanks and walked over to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and looked inside, still feeling Raven eyes on me like a hot brand to my back. I smirked darkly knowing that I pissed her off when I blocked her out of my mind. Tuff. I thought as I grabbed some ham and cheese and place it on the counter, Closing the refrigerator door, I looked around and saw a loaf of bread a few feet away. I walked over and made myself a ham & cheese sandwich. When I was done, I place all the stuff back where they belonged then I walked over to the couch and sat down to eat my snack. Raven was on the other side of the couch, with an open book in her hand. She was staring at it like she was reading it, but I could feel the frustration radiating off her.

I ate my sandwich quietly as I stared out the huge window that made up one of the walls of the room.

Half way through my sandwich, Raven looked up at me. Apparently her patience snapped. "Who are you?" She hissed softly so that none of the other Titans could hear.

I smirked and glanced at her. "You know it's rude to ask someone who they are without introducing yourself first right?" I asked with a cocky tone. I stared right into her eyes with out blinking. I know I probably shouldn't be doing this, that I would be risking my identity, but I was amused by her actions.

Raven glared at me as I took another calm bite out of my sandwich. "Raven of the Teen Titans. You know that already." She said softly, keeping her voice down.

I chuckled and closed my eyes for a second before opening them again. "And I'm Daniel Fenton of Amity Park. And you knew that too, so why ask me who I am?" Ahhh, how I missed witty banter.

She glared at me and, realizing she wasn't going to get anything else out of me, she turned back to her book with a scowl.

I chuckled softly. When I finished my sandwich I walked up and walked to the sink and washed the plate I use before drying it off and placing it with all the other clean plate. When I started to walked back tot he doors to head to my room was was stopped by Starfire.

"Danny, seeing as how we never got the chance of talking and conversing, I would like to ask you a few questions please!" She said with a big smile on her face. " I know you from Amity Park and you name is Danny so that answers 2 of my questions, but I have a few others. How did you get here? How old are you? What is your favorite color? And do you wish to be my friend?" She asked so quickly that I hardly caught anything that she said.

"Umm..." I was so caught off guard by her questions that it took me a moment to answer them. I replied in a calm voice. "Well in order, I got here by walking and hickhiking," Lie. I flew. " I'm 16, Blue, and...No." I said softly to her last question. I knew that I was going to hurt her feeling's but too bad.

I watched as her expression fell and she looked hurt. "Oh." she said softly. "Why wont you be my friend?"

I shook my head and walked past her, not answering.

"Yo man, She just wanted to be your friend." Said Cyborg from behind me.

I paused in my step. "I am aware of that. And my answer still stands...for all of you." I said not turning to look at them. "I appreciate you kindness in letting me stay here, but I have no intention of befriending any of you." I replied calmly, but emotions once again raged through my body. I had to clench my hands together to keep them from shaking. Why? Out of all things in the world she had to ask me was 'Will you be my friend?' Sam and Tucker were the only true friends I ever had in the world, and there gone now. No more friendships. I promised myself bitterly.

"Why not? Starfire is harmless." I heard Robin say. I could hear shock in his voice.

"That's none of you concern." I bit out bitterly as I continued to walk toward the door.

"Dude! Starfire is only trying to be nice in trying to be your friend! She just want's to help you! Why wont you be friends with anyone?" I stopped again when I heard Beastboy.

"BECAUSE I DONT HAVE THE HEART FOR IT ANYMORE!" I yelled my back still to them, my hands clenched into fist so tightly, that blood started to drip from it. I could hear the shocked and stunned silence that spread through the room. I took a deep breath and calmed myself as tears threatened to come once again. But I forced them back. "I don't have the heart for friendship anymore." I said again, softer this time. And before any of them could say anything else or try and stop me, I walked through the doors heading back up to my room.

When I stepped inside I changed into my ghost form, and took off out the window and high up into the sky at my top speed of almost 200 mph, strait up into the clouds to release my fury.

~ There was Chapter 13 ya'll! I hope I did a good Starfire. I never very good with her and her strange speech lol. But hopefully Chapter 14 should be up soon. TA!~
